Selu Herraiz

Holistic Practitioner, Shiatsu Master, Ayurvedic Massage Therapist, Artist (he / they)

My work sustains a traditional perspective adapted to the needs and customs of contemporary society.

My training in Holistic Therapy began in 2007 with my studies in phytotherapy and spagyrics, learning the therapeutic use of plants.

In 2009, nine months of travel in India brought me in contact with Ayurvedic and Tibetan Medicine, living with a Buddhist monk in the Sikkim region.

Back in Europe, in 2017, I began to study Ayurvedic Abhyangam Massage and embark on the journey of becoming a Shiatsu Master, studying under Miguel de la Vega. Three years later, I completed both courses including the postgraduate degree specialised in the treatment of attachment (relationships shiatsu) and of psychosomatic trauma.

My interests as a therapist are:

· Facilitating greater awareness of the body, including the mind.

· Inviting patients to prevent disease, showing how to better relate to themselves and the environment.

· Helping to improve the five basic functions of the human being: Breathing, Hydration, Nutrition, Hygiene and Activity-Rest.

· Promoting relaxation, well-being and personal evolution.

A little personal history

I was born in Spain in the winter of 1981. My early years were influenced by my parents occupations, my mother was in the final stages of medical studies while my father was teaching chemistry, studying botany and animals.

During my adolescence, my mother studied physical therapy and practiced with me.

As a young adult, I studied engineering and dedicated myself to autodidact artistic creation- my occupation during the the last fifteen years. The world of Art brought me closer to active listening, a profound way of listening to the world to get to know it better, and of listening to myself to get to know myself better. I have cultured the art of self-care and how to care for others.
